Pristine Peaks IE is a streamlined version of our stereo Pristine Peaks limiter that has been enhanced and optimized for multi-channel surround and “immersive audio” applications. Pristine Peaks IE, like Pristine Peaks, is an ultra-low distortion peak limiter for use in both mixing and mastering applications where the transparent peak control is required. Pristine Peaks IE can support up to 12 channels of audio for use on mono all the way up to 7.1.4 channel-based audio tracks and buses. Each channel can be level-trimmed +/-5dB pre-limiter while their peaks can be trimmed as well by as much as 10dB below the master Ceiling setting. Pristine Peaks IE is more than just a limiter! It is a multi-channel editing tool that can be used to trim levels, mute and/or extract individual channels from within a multi-channel audio stream via its Channel Isolate and Drive Trim controls. Pristine Peaks IE uses a novel approach to dynamics control that produces a very “clean” sound that does not break up or distort even at high gain reduction amounts. Instead of saturating or clipping waveform peaks, Pristine Peaks IE determines what needs to be done to control the peaks and applies that gain change to the entire waveform. This results in extremely low THD for a very “clean” sound.
